Hello,

In the next week or two, it will be *very* important for users to have 
regression scripts running, because finding problems now will allow me 
to fix them before the release.

To answer your question: normally you configure the Catalog interface 
details in the Catalog {} resource of the Director, but most of the 
bacula-dir.conf files that are used in regression testing, and there are 
many of them, are "canned", which means I am not sure that you can 
easily change the Catalog resource in each of these scripts.  You might 
be able to do it with a simple sed command that adds what Dan 
recommends.  You would point sed at all the *bacula-dir*.in files that 
are in <regress>/scripts.

It might be easier to bring up a new local postgres on your test machine 
or possibly a MySQL.

By the way, Bacula version 9.0.0 (currently labeled as version 7.9.0) is 
almost ready for testing.  I hope to push it to the repo before the end 
of next week (possibly sooner).  The biggest issue aside from testing on 
multiple OSes is the documentation.

Best regards,

Kern
